There are 8 students to 1 coach per class for K2 and above grades. Our K1 class size is maximum 12 students to 2 coaches.

There are seven full time gymnastics coaching staff that are FIG certified with two staff certified ADAPT 1 Parkour coach. The programme is also supported by three part time gymnastics coaching staff certified by Singapore's Gymnastics Federation and four part time parkour coaching staff certified by ADAPT Parkour.

Female students wear a gymnastics leotard and shorts and male students wear sports attire. If none of these are available, students may wear their PE kits. Students are bare feet when in the gymnastics centre. No buttons, zippers or jewelry during their gymnastics activity.

We have a specific policy that states that students' places from the previous season (within the same school year) are carried over to the following season provided that the student signs up for the same day, places gymnastics as option 1, and settles the payment as soon as they receive their allocation.  

Due to the nature of gymnastics/parkour being a complicated sport, a student needs time to progress. Our year long plan is to build our student's strength and skills through continuity. 

We try to accommodate as much students as possible and will allow only one class a week per student. If a student wishes to do more than once a week, we can only offer the Saturday class as their second session. 

Registration for Saturday classes is via the Community Activities Programme Portal.
